“You little rascal…” Adriana was touched, yet she remained uneasy. “You worry about me, and I worry about you too. Look at you. Ever since you returned from Essley, you’ve been dealing with all sorts of things without taking a proper rest. You’ve only been back for a few days and haven’t had a moment’s peace, and now this big issue has popped up…

Neera lowered her eyes with a gentle smile. “I’m fine, you know. Being young is all about endless hustle and bustle. Don’t worry about me, Aunt Adriana.”

“Exactly.” Chad respected Neera’s decision and also saw it as a great opportunity for growth. “Adriana, listen to Neera. And Neera, you can rest assured. When you arrive at the venue, I will arrange for trustworthy people to protect you. I absolutely won’t let anything happen to you.”

“All right, Uncle Chad. I have complete faith in your people. I can rest easy.

Adriana still felt quite worried, always having a sense of unease. “Will the Gordon family members take action against Neera? Or perhaps they may seize the opportunity to trip her up, set traps, and such. After all, many people are dissatisfied with her being the successor. Who knows, they may even harbor resentment towards Neera…”

Neera gently patted her aunt’s hand, soothing her with a warm voice.

“Aunt Adriana, don’t worry. It’s okay. I can handle it. The infighting in such a large family is inevitable. I have to face it sooner or later. Besides, I’ll have Uncle Chad’s protection. Even if they bear grudges against me, they have to think twice before doing anything to me. At most, they will just try to make things difficult for me.” She lifted her chin confidently, then shot Chad a meaningful glance.

The latter chuckled, pulling out an antiquated, bronze-colored token. “That’s right. If anyone dares to disobey you, show them this token. Seeing this token is as good as seeing me. It can fully represent my orders. If there are still those who do not comply, don’t hesitate to deal with them directly according to the family rules. When the time comes, Zephyr and Charles will be with you. Charles will know what to do.”

Neera took the token, smiling. “This token is quite heavy. With it in my hand, things will be much more convenient for me. Aunt Adriana, you can finally rest easy now, can’t you?”

Naturally, Adriana still couldn’t put her mind at ease.

However, she knew her persuasion would be futile, so she sighed and said no more.

Thus, the matter was settled just like that.

At Kingsview, after being unconscious for two days, Frederic finally came around.

If he could wake up, it meant he was safe.

Before long, he was transferred to the VIP ward.

After checking on Frederic, Isabella discussed the situation with Jean.

Wrenn, listening at the side, was so emotional that she couldn’t help but cry. “Thank goodness he’s all right…”

Isabella glanced at her. “Although Mr. Frederic has woken up, he is still very weak and needs rest. He may not stay awake for long and will likely fall asleep again. This is normal, so there’s no need for you to worry. You can go and see him now.”

Wrenn couldn’t wait any longer. Upon hearing that, she hurriedly entered the ward.

Wrenn couldn’t wait any longer. Upon hearing that, she hurriedly entered the ward.

Jean followed closely behind. As soon as he entered, he saw his mother holding Frederic’s hand, chokingly asking questions.

“How are you feeling now? Do you feel dizzy? Is there any part of your body that hurts? Do you feel like eating anything? If so, I can go back and cook something for you,” she said.

Frederic patted her hand, smiling resignedly. “Don’t worry, I’m fine. A couple of days of rest and I’ll be back to normal. Stop fussing. I don’t have an appetite right now.”

Wrenn’s eyes were filled with tears, her nose turning red from crying. “You scared me to death. Have you ever thought about what I would do if something happened to you? You must get better. You just have to…

Frederic was both heartbroken and soft-hearted. He wanted to wipe away her tears, but he lacked the strength. All he could do was to comfort her in a soft voice. “All right, I’m sure I’ll get better. Don’t cry anymore. Be good, okay?”

In the midst of the conversation, he saw Jean, who smiled at him. “I scared you, didn’t I? Don’t worry, I’m fine. I’ll be better soon.”

Looking at his usually robust father, who was comforting him despite weakly lying in the ward, Jean was at a loss for words for a moment.

After a few seconds, he finally managed to utter a soft, “Mhm.”

Later, Joseph arrived.

After greeting Frederic, he patted Jean’s shoulder. “Leave this to me. You should go back and get some rest. You’ve been here for two days, so you must not have slept well. Your body won’t be able to take it.”

At that point, Wrenn’s emotions had stabilized, and she also began to persuade.

“Yes, Joseph is right,” she said. “You haven’t rested for the past two days. You must be exhausted, so you need to take care of yourself. Go home, have a good meal, and get some rest.”

Jean’s heart sank, but he agreed.

On the way back, lan finally found the opportunity to report on the situation in Phison.
